Why Redwood Stands Out Among Montreal Camps: The Ultimate Summer Experience for Your Child

When parents search for the best Montreal camps, they’re looking for more than just a place to send their kids—they’re looking for a safe environment where their child will thrive. They want camp programs that blend fun, learning, and growth. At Redwood Country Day Camp, we’ve been doing exactly that for over 50 years.

From exciting activities and outdoor games to skill-building leadership sessions, Redwood has become a trusted name among day camps near Montreal. Whether your child is a first-time camper or returning for another unforgettable summer, Redwood offers a unique blend of adventure, community, and personal growth that goes far beyond the average camp experience.

Our summer camp offers a wide range of activities tailored to different age groups and interests, making it one of the most comprehensive camps for kids in the region. Each camp week is structured to ensure every camper feels included, challenged, and celebrated.

Leadership Development: Building Tomorrow's Leaders

Our dynamic program includes a specialized CIT Program (Counselors in Training) that focuses on leadership development for teenagers finishing grade 8 and 9 for teenagers who would like to work with children in the future.

This enriching experience gives teens, ages 14-15, important life skills such as learning how to communicate with others as a team, receiving feedback in a practical setting, and learning how to empathize with others, and learning how to act as a good role model for the campers in the group as well as with their peers. 

Safe Environment with Experienced Camp Counselors

Redwood's camp counselors undergo extensive training in health and safety, child integration techniques, emotional development support, and communication skills.

The enthusiasm and experience of our counselors is reflected in their daily interactions with the children, ensuring physical activities positively impact your child's motor and teamwork skills. With constant supervision in our supportive environment, parents can rest assured their child is experiencing camp in the safest possible setting.
